@liesnalibis...the actual AA patient photos look good but I am still not sold on him, he was the only Dr. in my area who actually have AA real patient photos. They just updated the website because all of these crazy pics, ads and pop ups were not on there before, it was just the patient before/after

@Suga- I am texlaxed and have tried to transition a few times to natural but never made it past 25wks. I see a lot of pics from women on the Dr's sites with relaxers and braids, I thought that would cause trauma to the new hair.

Would you recommend transitioning to natural before opting for the procedure?

Do you have any recommended sites you suggest so I can get more information about the procedure and different methods?

Were you able to wear wigs(with no combs) after the procedure? What are your options for hair coverage while the hair grows?

Missofisticated I don't think the hair texture matters. I've seen women with relaxers and braids get this done. The doctor is taking the hair from the root. It will still be in its natural state when it grows out. I think you will be fine. As far as coverage I was on a 2 week vacation from work so I was at home with my head out but if I needed to go out I wore a hat. For church I wore a u-part wig with the top opening out with no combs and a berret. Your head will still be numb for a super long time. Matter of fact my head is still numb. If I scratch at the top I can't feel it. I forget who sold me a upart wig that had the opening out and she had it customed to start behind the hairline so it was perfect. I wore that with a cute beanie and berre'(sp).

Thanks for the update. My mom and I are following your progress. She is in her late 60s and was like if she had known 25 yrs ago but she's older. She'll keep wigging and weaving. She going to use the money on traveling.Mom wishes you much success on your growth thank you for being willing to share something so personal.
